Title: what use for Chance Brittania bowl.
Post by: Paul S. on February 24, 2010, 08:51:11 PM

Very recent finds which are obviously identical bowls - one being a simple fruit dish, but what was the intended use for the other  -  was it a sugar??    It runs down to the Ivory de Lux gilt rim bowl on a chrome pedestal, but I can't see a stated use, so answers on a postcard please and send to GMB, and my sincere thanks for looking.

thanks to both of you for the contributions.       Appreciate the effort to locate suitable Jade frog Keith  -  although don't want you to spend too much time looking, feel sure one will turn up before too long.    cheers           Paul S.
